This week I launched a subscription service on the Seeking Alpha Marketplace calledIndustrial Minefinder. This service will focus on providing do-it-yourself individual investors, professional investors, and institutional investors with exceptional investment opportunities from within the industrial mining sector.

In this True Vine Letter, I provide an overview of Social Security Retirement Benefits. This Letter is designed to provide the informed reader with a refresher and the uniformed reader with a general understanding of how the system works so that they can start thinking properly about their benefit(s), if applicable.

In this True Vine Letter, we take a look at Cassini Resources, a junior miner that owns Australia's largest undeveloped nickel-copper deposit. Given where nickel is in the current cycle, shares of Cassini present a compelling value with significant leverage to higher prices.

I recently built a database of lower grade, industrial metals focused mining projects with the intention of analyzing them to determine what the necessary ingredients are to produce attractive economic outcomes. This analysis led to some interesting conclusions.

Nowadays I am spending a lot of time looking at junior miners focused on silver, zinc, and copper. In this Letter we take a look at Azarga Metals which is exploring an interesting copper-silver project in Eastern Russia.
